Noodles

(yes that’s soy sauce)

I really like the graphical element of noodles. When some people called it spaghetti, I was like, “What, no, they’re NOODLES because they’re ASIAN.” I had to take a step back to remember that many cultures use noodles, not just Asian ones… which just makes them even better as a graphical element! But anyway, this piece is just about drowning in stereotypes that are seemingly Asian, but are actually not limited to Asians?

This piece was created for a class assignment. The frame is plastered with erotic Japanese comics!
